input delay, will it stay?

Hey there

I just wanted to know if the input delay of like ~0.2-0.3 seconds is intentional?
Is there a official post about this?

It's really the only problem I've had with my ~15 games until now. It makes the game feel kinda sluggish.
I don't know the general mindset on this, but this is really destroying my anticipation for the full release. Every game i play i think "Wow this game is so well designed, it's so much fun, but how much fun would it be if everything would be extremely responsive?

yes its hon players only because hon is so much faster paced and require quicker reactions, so when you come to dota 2 and you want to react to something but it doesnt go as fast as hon then it feels slow and sluggish compared to hon.

Last hitting on european servers in Dota 2 (40-80 ms) feels like last hitting on US East servers in HoN (~100-200 ms) basically.
S2 uses the exact same attack animation speeds for the ported dota heroes so there should theoretically be no difference in last hitting with Plague Rider/Lich or Glacius/Crystal Maiden with the same latency, but there is. Only turning speed is sped up in HoN, not attack animations.
